it's 2022 and let's be honest smartphones have never been as confusing as they are right now we've got flagships we've got mid-ranges pretending to be flagships we've got foldable rollable mini phones massive phones. So I'm just going to lay it down as it is I'm going to show you the best phone for each of the seven different kinds of users leading up to the best overall phone of the year so far and then topped off with the worst phone which we're gonna punish on camera. so let's start with the design-conscious user for those of you who really value the look and the feel of a smartphone 2022 has been a great year. I really like how Samsung streamlined their s21 ultra with the new s22 ultra Xiaomi's had a similar blow-off on their mi 12 pro it looks way cleaner than last year's mi 11. But I think the most design-conscious device is actually sony's new Xperia one mark iv. From a hardware perspective at least it's an absolute pleasure it's narrow enough that it fits perfectly in your palm. It's got a matte finish that says goodbye to fingerprints a dedicated camera shutter button and even a sim card and micro sd card tray that you can access with just your fingers. All right brand new category time same story for Xiaomi the company has basically confirmed that a mi 12 ultra is coming and it's seemingly going to be quite a big step up from the current mi 12 and the mi 12 pro. And so this process of elimination has left me with the best of the best and it, of course, does depend on what ecosystem you want to be in if you've decided that you want an iPhone then it's really simple actually just get the latest iPhone you can take this article as a reassurance that if you do so you're not missing out on game-changing features on android's end because this year I also want to award the most eco-conscious phone. No, not giving points for excluding the charger there are three companies that stand out here one is Nokia who've started doing a lot of different things to play their part like they give good software support and large batteries so your phone lasts as long as possible. they give at least two years of warranty for repairs in case something goes wrong and they even plant trees for every single purchase one is apple whose latest devices are made from recycled materials like even used water bottles plus apple is ahead when it comes to offsetting the pollution caused by its manufacturing with other green projects that they invest in and their phones also have the longest life cycle.
When it comes to updates but if you wanted to go all in on the eco front there is only one phone for you the fair phone 4. This is kind of like a run-of-the-mill 500 phone but with its screen and specs downgraded and then all of that extra budget used to make it as sustainable as possible I mean even if its presentation is, it's about as literal as you can get. They built it such that the entire thing can be taken apart with just fingers and a simple screwdriver so it's extremely repairable. The company promises that for every phone they sell, they'll recycle an equal amount of electronic waste plus this thing doesn't come with like one year or two years of warranty it comes with five. It's almost not fair to the other phone
now what if you've got smaller hands though. Don't know why I'm doing this minor enormous. It is a genuine problem though you have the budget you want the best phone you can get.
most good devices are the size of your face. Well thankfully Samsung has actually done a really good job with their base galaxy s22 it isn't anything special in the hardware department but it is cheaper than last year's s21 and it's just so polished for such a dinky little device plus there is also the Samsung galaxy z flip 3 which because it folds are even more compact. Both of these are capable phones for their size I would just be a little careful if you're a real enthusiast and you want your top.
